Our winner this week is @boywithanikon, otherwise known as Manfred Barba, with his surreal image of a floating, self-pouring teapot. In addition to Photoshop, of course, Manfred used a ton of props to bring this shot together, including the ubiquitous fishing line.

He writes, "I love that when it comes to photography anything is possible... I take my time and I plan out my shoots, this was a lot of hard work but I was able to make my floating tea set come alive. With a good camera and a sturdy tripod anything is possible.

And as for my new tripod that I will be receiving, I can't wait to go out exploring and capturing everything in sight. I have a lot of plan and ideas and I can't wait to pull them off with this tripod."

You can find more of Manfred's experiments in composite imagery on flickr, tumblr, and 500px.
